Steampunk: Sounds of Steam, Why We Do What We Do in Steampunk

Tune in this evening on Radio Riel Steampunk from 6:00pm to 9:00pm North American Pacific time for Sounds of Steam, the weekly, Steampunk themed, Internet radio show, hosted by Travis I. Sivart and Chris Hall.

Why Steampunk? What makes you passionate about this hobby, pastime, aesthetic, lifestyle, or whatever you want to call it? We tell you the our personal answers to those questions, as well as ask others. Interviews with Steampunk darling, Airship Captain, and Steampunk Murder Mystery Host, Nim Derringer; Author of the Thomas Riley series, Nick Valentino; and convention creator and host, Jeff Mach.

We have our usual weekly segments of Drink‐Du‐Jour, This Week In History, Opening and Closing Toasts, Upcoming Events, and Steampunk Music Hour. We discuss the influence of Steampunk in the world of movies, literature, music, gaming, and every other corner of culture we can find. We interview convention goers and hosts, artists, bands, writers, inventors, time travelers and craftsmen. We explore the hobbies, sub genres, geographic influences and fringe cultures that help shape Steampunk every day. All of this blended with wit, sarcasm and a pub‐like atmosphere.
